Ratings and reviews

I had not used this app in quite some time and have gotten several phones since my purchase. it worked great originally, but now that I have a note 8, the wand and clamp do not work. its picking up the sound from the phone mic and not the wand or the clamps. utterly useless now. just my experience. will come back and change rating if theres a setting or if it gets resolved.

all right so over all its a great idea tool works great as far as a visual test I can't get the audio to work it keeps turning my volume down. and oh I also for got to mention. so far this app. doesn't work at all on Samsung phones I had to dig out an old LG I had. so I think if they can fix the volume issue and the Samsung issue it would get a 5 star from me. I really like the visual part though cause you can see the difference rather than hear. cause my hearing can be different at times.

Purchased it brand new off the truck and installed per the instructions. Using a Galaxy Note 9 it picks up noise by the phones mic not the probe or device. Tried emailing the developer and my message was rejected "554 rejecting banned content", so if you cant email the developer to correct an issue what good is the app and product?
